Ok, so this problem comes from a change in the newest ffmpeg (libavcodec) API, the default 15.10 version should work fine with the stable guvcview version. But if you upgrade libavcodec (via ppa or by building the source code) you need to rebuild guvcview (using the latest git code).
The upcoming 16.04 already has the new ffmpeg version so the binary builds of guvcview in my testing ppa for 16.04 should work fine: https://code.launchpad.net/~pj-assis/+archive/ubuntu/testing/+build/9379822 For 15.10 the builds are against the default 15.10 ffmpeg version so they will only work with that, if you wish to use a new version, you really need to build the latest git.
